Sound Transit's Link light rail cut service from Othello station south Tuesday afternoon after a power outage.

Trains were still running between the University of Washington and Rainier Beach.

The transit authority sent out an alert around 12:30 p.m. about the outage, and said in it that a Metro 97 Link shuttle was in service between Rainier Beach and Tukwila International Boulevard stations. Sound Transit updated that to Othello before 1 p.m.

For other travel, Sound Transit detailed bus options:

For service toward the University of Washington from Angle Lake or SeaTac Stations, board the RapidRide A Line at the posted bus stops northbound on International Boulevard S and transfer to Metro Route 97 Link Shuttle northbound at Tukwila International Boulevard Station. Transfer to Link at Rainier Beach Station to continue north toward University of Washington Station.

For service toward Angle Lake Station from Rainier Beach Station, board Metro Route 97 Link Shuttle at the posted bus stop on Martin Luther King Jr Way S and transfer to the southbound RapidRide A Line at Tukwila International Boulevard Station.

There was no estimate of when the southern parts of the Link line might be restored.
